WIP - Echoes of Aeons- An Action RPG from Alchimia Studios
Just wanted to start a WIP thread. This game has been in the making for a few years, in fact around 3.5-4 years ago we showed off some content from our prototype here. But 4 yrs is a long time. We having been making huge progress and the game has grown with the engine, however we haven't shown off much since the initial prototype.
Now, we are getting much closer to a final build (releasing later this year if all continues to go to plan) and I thought i'd show off some WIP screens from our current internal alpha/pre-alpha. The game is very playable at this point and 90-95% of the systems are final, but it's a huge RPG so we still have many months ahead of hard work building/bug fixing/editing.
You can play as 2 characters (Eldric and Rin) and you can switch between who you control at any point. The other character then becomes AI instantly and helps you out. Each one has it's own unique play style/abilities as well. The game has a full length story of about 40,000-50,000 words ( roughly the size of a small novel, so much editing to do ). And has loads of content including 3 full mini games, a world map, and hundreds of scenes/areas. We also have full controller support for MacOS integrated (game feels great playing this way) and much, much more!
Going to keep updating with some gif's and gameplay vids as we start to push them out as that's where it really shines, but here is a few screens captured from iPhone for now.

Nice work! Been following this project on twitter for a while. My guess would be that this is probably the largest Gamesalad game made. Could be great on the Fire TV as well since you have the controller support done for Mac.

Thanks! That's actually something we were just discussing yesterday since it should already be compatible. Might try and pick up a Fire TV gaming edition for myself or borrow one to see what it's like.

Wanted to update with a couple more alpha screenshots for now. These are the WIP main menu w/ logo and a screen of our book system.
I've been doing tons of work on adaptive UI for desktop (loads different assets/sizes/positions based on both OS and Aspect ratio) so we can make one build for both Mac and iOS. Also added resolution support for 16:10 monitors.
Happy to say it looks good on up to 3-4k resolutions. Haven't got to try a 5k iMac yet.

the menu logo reminds me directly about final fantasy, which is a good thing for your type of game :=)

Hi @AlchimiaStudios any advance in your game?
@AlchimiaStudios I've been looking forward to Echoes of Aeons as well. Can't wait!
@CasualEvolution
Yes, plenty of progress. But we're not ready to show more screenshots/vids quite yet. There is a ton of finalization of things going on. Especially around cutscenes and animations. We've hired an animator to work with us too for the last little bit, so things are moving along quicker in that regards since we've had multiple hand on deck.
Just putting it all together now really. Game is "playable" to about 8+ hrs in now (final will be a bit longer we think), about half of that is in a state that's pretty close to final.
But, as i'm sure you guessed, it's a beast of a project, still much work to be done. It's all plotted out though, so nothing is really unknown at this point. We also have an internal target date.
When we feel comfortable we'll release more info.
